  1. Minnesota Vikings

Will Fuller – WR – Notre Dame

The Minnesota Vikings need someone that young quarterback Teddy Bridgewater can rely on. Mike Wallace isn’t it. Will Fuller is a legit deep threat who isn’t afraid to run underneath routes, like Wallace. He has the ability to outrun coverages and still be able to hit a slant. Fuller has good hands and would be a nice addition to a Vikings offense that needs to start getting touchdowns from the group.

While Stefon Diggs played very well in his rookie season the Vikings have no one outside of him to rely on. Defensively the team could use help at linebacker but receiver is a bigger priority this offseason. Should Minnesota be able to fill some spots and upgrade the roster a bit, the Vikings would be the favorite to repeat in the NFC North after a surprise division title in 2015.
